Normalmap with alpha tga - 05/21/05 14:08

Hello!
I have leaf-panels for a tree, and their textur has an alpha channel, so that a part of the textur is transparent. NOW, I give the panels my normalmap shader and they lose their transparency. So my question is how should I change my code to get the transparency of the alpha channel, with normalmapping?
Please help me, this is very relevant for my game!!!
Here is the standard fx code for normalmapping(only some unimportant things were changed):
Code:
 float4x4 matViewInv;

float3x3 WldToTan;

float4 vecViewPos;
float4 vecViewDir;

float4 vecLight;
float4 vecLightPos[8];
float4 vecLightColor[8];


texture entSkin1;
texture entSkin2;

dword mtlSkill1;

matrix matWorldViewProj;
matrix matWorld;
matrix matMtl;
matrix matWorldViewProjInv;

sampler sColorMap = sampler_state
{
Texture = <entSkin1>;
MinFilter = Linear;
MagFilter = Linear;
MipFilter = Linear;
AddressU = Wrap;
AddressV = Wrap;
};

sampler sBumpMap = sampler_state
{
Texture = <entSkin2>;
MinFilter = Linear;
MagFilter = Linear;
MipFilter = Linear;
AddressU = Wrap;
AddressV = Wrap;
};

struct VS_OUTPUT
{
float4 oPosition : POSITION;
float2 Tex : TEXCOORD0;
float3 Light1 : TEXCOORD2;
float3 View1 : TEXCOORD3;
float3 Att1 : TEXCOORD4;

float3 Light2 : TEXCOORD5;
float3 View2 : TEXCOORD6;
float3 Att2 : TEXCOORD7;
};


VS_OUTPUT main_vs(float4 inPosition : POSITION, float2 inTex : TEXCOORD0, float3 inNormal : NORMAL, float3 inTangent : TEXCOORD2 )
{
VS_OUTPUT Out ;

Out.oPosition = mul(inPosition, matWorldViewProj);

WldToTan[0] = mul(inTangent, matWorld);
WldToTan[1] = mul(cross(inTangent, inNormal), matWorld);
WldToTan[2] = mul(inNormal, matWorld);

Out.Tex = inTex.xy*1; //Scale the texture UV's


float4 Pos_World = mul( inPosition, matWorld);

float LightRange1 = 0.0001;
float LightRange2 = 0.0001;

//light 1
float3 Light1 = Pos_World - vecLightPos[1];
Out.Light1.xyz = mul(WldToTan, -Light1);

float3 Viewer1 = Pos_World - vecViewDir;
Out.View1.xzy = mul(WldToTan, -Viewer1);

Out.Att1 = Light1 * LightRange1;
//light 2
float3 Light2 = Pos_World - vecLightPos[2];
Out.Light2.xyz = mul(WldToTan, -Light2);

float3 Viewer2 = Pos_World - vecViewDir;
Out.View2.xzy = mul(WldToTan, -Viewer2);

Out.Att2 = Light2 * LightRange2;

return Out;
}

{

float3 ViewDir = normalize(IN.View1);
float4 color;
float3 bumpNormal;

float2 OffsetTex = IN.Tex;
color = tex2D(sColorMap, OffsetTex);
bumpNormal =(2 * (tex2D(sBumpMap, OffsetTex )))- 1.0;
float4 gloss = tex2D( sBumpMap, OffsetTex);

//light1
float3 LightDir1 = normalize(IN.Light1);
float3 ViewDir1 = normalize(IN.View1);
float4 diff1 = saturate(dot(bumpNormal, LightDir1));
float shadow1 = saturate(2 * diff1);
float3 Reflect1 = normalize(2 * diff1 * bumpNormal - LightDir1);
float4 spec1 = pow(saturate(dot(Reflect1, ViewDir1)), 8);
float4 Attenuation1 = saturate(dot(IN.Att1, IN.Att1));

//light2
float3 LightDir2 = normalize(IN.Light2);
float3 ViewDir2 = normalize(IN.View2);
float4 diff2 = saturate(dot(bumpNormal, LightDir2));
float shadow2 = saturate(2 * diff2);
float3 Reflect2 = normalize(2 * diff2 * bumpNormal - LightDir2);
float4 spec2 = pow(saturate(dot(Reflect2,ViewDir2)), 8);
float4 Attenuation2 = saturate(dot(IN.Att2, IN.Att2));

return (
(0.2 * color) + //ambient
((shadow1 * (color * diff1 + (spec1)) * (1 -Attenuation1))*vecLightColor[1])+
((shadow2 * (color * diff2 + (spec2)) * (1 -Attenuation2))*vecLightColor[2])
);

//return (0.2 * color + color* diff1 * vecLightColor[1]+diff2 * vecLightColor[2]);

I have the same problem with my toon shader...

well the problem is you are trying to combine fixed functions with a pixel shader, this cant work because the pixel shader overrids your FF commands. Heres what you do:

get rid of the lest line in your pixel shader where it returns, and put this

Code:


float4 finalcolor =(0.2 * color) + ((shadow1 * (color * diff1 + (spec1)) * (1 -Attenuation1))*vecLightColor[1])+ ((shadow2 * (color * diff2 + (spec2)) * (1 -Attenuation2))*vecLightColor[2]));

finalcolor.a = color.a;

if (finalcolor.a>0.5)
{
finalcolor.a=1;
}

else
{
finalcolor.a=0.0;
}

return finalcolor;
